Please Note
- We welcome any and all dogs into daycare on the condition they pass our temperament evaluation test (evaluation based on personality and play style).
- On your first day, we ask that you drop off between 6:30 am to 8:00 am. This is to ensure your dog has plenty of time to acclimate to the environment before introduction into group.
- Once we evaluate your dog, they will be introduced to the pack and evaluate for any behaviors that may cause problems. If everything is fine, they will receive a passing grade.
- Dogs will be placed into one of our three play groups (small, medium and large) based on size and temperament.
- After your first initial visit, you may use our online scheduling system to reserve your dog’s spot in their play group (limited space per group and become full some days.

- During the day your dog is given a water break about every hour with them receiving their own water bowl and a potty break following their water break.
